Clacton-on-Sea is the largest town in the Tendring peninsula and district in Essex, eastern England, and was founded as an urban district in 1871. It is a seaside resort that saw a peak of tourists in the summer months between the 1950s and 1970s.
The town's economy continues to rely significantly on entertainment and day-trip facilities and it is strong in the service sector, with a large retired population. The north-west part of the town has two business/industrial parks. In the wider district, agriculture and occupations connected to the Port of Harwich provide further employment.

What an amazing sight. I'm a fan of graphiti not because i think it looks nice (which it does) but every picture, word tells a story. I know this was a planned slice of graphiti but i still think its pretty attractive, even though i dont think the inside is much cop
The moat of this Martello Tower used to house a Children's Zoo, but has been closed for some time.
On a clifftop, it is the only Clacton tower to have a moat, the other 2 are now just behind the prom at sea level.
The Postcard
A Valentine's Series postcard that was posted in September 1914 to:
Mrs. A.T. Lane,
9 Russell Street,
Luton,
Beds.
The message on the back of the card was as follows:
"Dear Mother,
How are you getting on
in these exciting times?
I think we shall manage
to stay another week
although D is nearly
scared to death - we
can hear the guns being
fired and see sentries
all over the place.
I dare not hardly go for
a walk - we have to go
round side streets to
avoid the coastguard
station.
I am writing this on the
Front at 8 o'clock in the
morning, been here since
half past six.
It is lovely.
Love Lou".

Clacton-on-Sea is the largest town in the Tendring peninsula in Essex, England, and was founded as an urban district in the year 1871. It is a seaside resort that saw a peak of tourists in the summer months between the 1950's and the 1970's.
The town's economy continues to rely significantly on entertainment and day-trip facilities, and it is strong in the service sector, with a large retired population.
In 1936, Billy Butlin bought and refurbished the West Clacton Estate, an amusement park to the west of the town. He opened a new amusement park on the site in 1937, and then, a year later on the 11th. June 1938, opened the second of his holiday camps.
This location remained open until 1983 when, due to changing holiday tastes, Butlins decided to close the facility. It was then purchased by former managers of the camp who reopened it as a short-lived theme park, called Atlas Park. The land was then sold and redeveloped with housing.
